About Us

Most of the written materials that underpin the videos, support packs and other copy on this site were prepared by our founder director Bob Edwards FCCA. Bob has been working with a number of practices across the UK for a number of years offering novel ways to improve cross-sales and new client acquisitions. He also has an interest in "step changes" in legislation that offer challenges, and therfore opportunities, for practitioners to widen their vision and marketing edge.

At present, he is following the antics of the development team at HMRC as they struggle to keep pace with their political masters as they constantly change the implementation dates and scope of Making Tax Digital. He is also (August 2017) liaising with the Information Commissioners Office to prepare firms for the advent of GDPR: a policy and procedures manual, information for clients and staff, changes required to engagement letters and terms and conditions, new privacy statements and other material are in-transit...

Bob works with a dedicated development team and admin support. Landmark also has associations with a range of complimentary service providers. If we cannot provide the service you need we will likely know someone who can.

Bob can be contacted on his direct line: 01723 363133; mobile: 07879 896073, or email bob@landmarkpd.co.uk anytime to discuss any practice related issue.

Breach of any of the Terms may result in the termination of your account.

Account Terms

In return for payment of the subscription fees, we agree to provide the Services to you on these Terms.

You must select a login name ("login") and password using the Site – that login and password is used by you to access the Site and the Services. Landmark is entitled to assume that all access to and use of the Site and the Services using your login and password is access and use by you.

Your login may only be used by one individual - a single login shared by multiple individuals is not permitted. You may create separate logins for an unlimited number of users.

During the signup process you must provide your full name and a valid email address.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and password. Landmark is not responsible for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this security obligation.

Payment, Upgrading and Downgrading Terms

Payments will be charged using any credit card or other payment mechanism we have on record for you.

The Service is billed in advance on a monthly basis and those fees are non-refundable. There are no refunds or credits for partial months of service, upgrade/downgrade refunds, or refunds for months unused with an open account.

Payments will cover the use of the contracted Services for a monthly or annual subscription period as agreed.

All fees are payable inclusive of GB VAT but exclusive of all other taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities. You are responsible for payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties.

For any upgrade or downgrade in a pricing plan level, you will be charged the new rate commencing from the start of your next billing cycle.

Downgrading your Service may cause a reduction in features, or capacity of your Account. Landmark has no liability for such reduction.

Unless you notify Landmark before the end of the applicable subscription period that you want to cancel, your subscription will automatically renew at the end of the then-current period, and you authorise us to collect the then-applicable subscription fee using any credit card or other payment mechanism we have on record for you.

Cancellation, refund policy and Termination

If you wish to terminate your account you must notify us using our normal account management and termination process. You are solely responsible for the cancellation process. An email or phone request to cancel your account is not an effective cancellation. The correct process to cancel your account is by clicking on the Cancellation option using the User setup/Landmark license option on your user dashboard.

All data associated with your account will be immediately deleted from the Service upon cancellation. This information cannot be recovered once your account is cancelled.

There is no refund or credit of monthly fees for cancellation during a month.

Landmark, in its sole discretion, may decline to provide Services to anyone for any reason, and may suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future access to or use of the Services for any reason at any time. Such termination of the Services will result in the deactivation or deletion of your Account or your access to your Account.

Managing data privacy and data sharing among entities

The Service allows members of an organisation to import and analyse data from multiple entities (for example, multiple companies within a corporate group, multiple unrelated companies such as members of a franchise group or trade association, or the clients of a professional firm). Data from such entities and clients may be entered, analysed and managed within the Service.

Importantly subscribers are responsible for the following terms and must,

Ensure user logins created for an organisation’s own staff are given the "Manager" role.

It is the responsibility of the person set up as the Main Contact in the Landmark user dashboard to set appropriate data sharing permissions for such multiple entity data collection, in order to avoid data being shared inappropriately.

You must, on behalf of your organisation, consider the data privacy arrangements they have with their clients, members, group entities, or related entities before adding a client company to Landmark’s data pool, and creating user logins for your staff.

Your use of the Service is at your sole risk. The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis.

Below is our privacy policy which addresses these principles:

If you have questions relating to personal information managed by us, please contact our support team via the website.

Landmark Regions UK Ltd. ("Landmark", "we", "us") operates several websites including Landmarkpd.co.uk. It is Landmark’s policy to fully comply with information privacy law and to respect your privacy regarding any personal information we may collect while operating our websites and providing our services.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Landmark collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Landmark’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Landmark’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Landmark may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website. Landmark also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users in order to improve user experiences and implement appropriate web site security.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Landmark’s websites choose to interact with Landmark in ways that require Landmark to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Landmark gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a free trial or paid service plan to provide their name and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Landmark – by purchasing access to a service, for example – are asked to provide additional information, including the information (such as credit-card details) required to process those transactions. In each case, Landmark collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Landmark. Landmark does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information. Deciding not to supply such information may mean a user is prevented from engaging in certain website-related activities, or acquiring services from us.

Online Advertising

AdWords Remarketing is a remarketing and behavioral targeting service provided by Google. It connects the website visitor activity on www.Landmarkpd.co.uk with the Google Adwords advertising network. AdWords remarketing will display relevant ads on sites across the Internet, tailored to you based on what parts of the Landmark website you have viewed by placing a cookie on your machine. Third-party vendors, including Google, use these cookies to serve the ads. You can opt out of the cookie tracking here: http://google.com/settings/ads/onweb/optout?hl=en

Aggregated Statistics

Landmark may collect statistics about the behaviour of visitors to its websites. However, Landmark does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Landmark discloses personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that need to know that information in order to process it on Landmark’s behalf or to provide services available at Landmark’s websites. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Landmark’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Landmark will not disclose personally-identifying information to other organisations for payment. Other than as described above, Landmark only discloses personally-identifying information in response to a court order or other regulatory request, or when Landmark believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Landmark, third parties or the public.

If you are a registered user of Landmark and have supplied your email address, Landmark may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Landmark and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Landmark takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Cookies

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. Landmark uses cookies to help Landmark identify visitors, their usage of Landmark website, and their website access preferences. Landmark visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using Landmark’s websites. Certain features of Landmark’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

Business Transfers

If Landmark, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired by a purchaser of Landmark’s business, or in the unlikely event that Landmark ceases trading or becomes insolvent, Landmark’s user database would be one of the assets that may be transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of Landmark may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, Landmark may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in Landmark’s sole discretion. Landmark encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
